SNot lost, only gone before"
MAY The assurance Of our Divine Master comfort
inc griefstricken parents, that "of such is the
Kingdom of Heaven"
TOO pure for earth, In early bloom.
Her Father plucked With care sa
Inc tender bud, ere sorrows gloom
GOULD blight thing 90 fair
Holy angels watched her bed
whilst death her mission filled:
ana the rose, though early crushed and dead
Ii only Of rs sweets distiiled.
In faizer Lands, meath brighter skies,
surrounded BY happy throng,
Wnere none that enter ever dies
sweet jamie joins in grateful song
No more her brow will ache with main
No more her frame with fever burn.
ana sin can ne'er her pure soul stain
Nor folly her nom daty turn-
O,msy the God who rcigns above
Console the parents woe,
AND shed On them His soothing love-
In this dark vale below.
